Glass Spheres

Delicate Beads for Delicate Parts

FOX Glass Spheres are the perfect solution for the polishing of super delicate parts. Because they are lead free, consistently round, and chemically inert, these solid spheres allow you to thoroughly clean and polish without risking damage to fragile parts.

Glass works as an effective surface finishing and burnishing media due to its unique properties and benefits. Here’s how it operates and the key advantages:

How Glass Media Works:

1. Non-Abrasive Polishing: Glass spheres are non-abrasive, providing gentle yet effective polishing. They smooth surfaces without removing significant material, making them ideal for delicate parts.
2. Spherical Shape: The consistent spherical shape of glass spheres ensures uniform contact with surfaces, promoting even finishing and burnishing.
3. Recyclability: Glass spheres can be reused multiple times, maintaining their effectiveness and reducing waste.

Benefits of Glass Media for Surface Finishing and Burnishing:

1. Gentle and Effective: Glass media is perfect for polishing and burnishing without causing damage, making it suitable for delicate and intricate parts.
2. Uniform Surface Finishing: The spherical shape provides consistent and uniform finishing, enhancing the aesthetics and functionality of parts.
3. Versatile Applications: Ideal for a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites, offering flexibility in various industrial applications.
4. Environmentally Friendly: Recyclable and long-lasting, glass media is an environmentally responsible choice that reduces the need for frequent replacements.
5. Minimal Contamination: Glass spheres do not leave residues or contaminants on finished parts, ensuring a clean and high-quality finish.
6. Cost-Effective: With their durability and reusability, glass spheres offer a cost-effective solution for achieving superior surface finishes over time.
7. Enhanced Surface Quality: Glass media enhances surface quality by providing a smooth, polished finish, which can improve the performance and longevity of the parts.
8. FOX Glass Spheres weigh next to nothing, yet they are no lightweight. Because they are lead free, consistently round, and chemically inert, these solid spheres allow you to thoroughly clean and polish without risking damage to fragile parts.

By choosing glass media for your surface finishing and burnishing needs, you can achieve high-quality, polished surfaces efficiently and sustainably.
